Date: 2015-06-06 01:43 pm (UTC)She says, No, because the wolf isn't tamed, nor reformed, but her voice is swallowed up in the cheering of the townspeople.
She's proven right when the next person goes into the woods, a shepherd moving his flocks. Three lambs are stolen and he is savaged and, when he's healed enough, he comes to her and screams that she's a fool for ever trusting a wolf, and he's a fool for putting his trust in a girl.
She says, No, and the shepherd thinks it means she agrees and goes to tell all who'll listen, but what she really meant was, trust had to be earned and how had the shepherd earned the trust of the forest folk?
The townsfolk attempt again and again to enter the forest, and each is sent back with some mishap or another - horses chased, flock stolen, dogs savaged. Each piles blame up at her feet. Each time she says, No, but they never understand her meanings, and with each attack, the townspeople grow darker and uglier toward her.
Until they decide she's a witch, in league with the wolf, and the best way to deal with both is to burn down the forest with her in it.
No, she says, but her voice is swallowed up in the crackling of flames and the cackling of laughter and cheers of delight at the smoke rising in the air.
But the wolf comes, a great, ravening beast with a maw redder than the fire's tongue. It rips through the bindings put on the girl and carries her in its mouth like she's its pup. And the wolf stops at the foot of the village to lay the girl down and it shouts a curse on them all for burning a forest of a god and the god's chosen.
And then both girl and wolf vanish in a flash of light, far more brilliant than the fire.
Once upon a time, there was a village with the belief that girls who ventured into the woods were sacrifices for the rest of the village's safe passage.
The townsfolk were wrong.

Date: 2015-09-30 02:33 pm (UTC)Kronos, Caspian, Silas, Byron. Others over the years, as Duncan has won many challenges. Rebecca and Darius cannot be laid at his door, though Methos could argue it, of course. Language is a slippery thing.
Kronos and Byron. He has loved others, hundreds of them, but Kronos had been the greatest and Byron's words had captured it. The memories mingle, now. Or perhaps he has just grown old.
He feels old, watching Duncan argue with his new Watcher the way he once argued with Joe. The girl has a sharp tongue and doesn't fall for Duncan's charm. She also doesn't recognize Methos.
He'd fooled them all, towards the end of the last century. Adam Pierson suffered his first death while a Watcher and it was embarrassing for them all. He wasn't Methos, of course; Joe had helped him,realizing it was safer for everyone involved.
Joe had seen, Methos thinks sometimes, just how much Methos hid. What had to be hidden, to have survived so much. Before Kronos came back, bringing the Horsemen with him. Joe understood.
Even now, thirty years after Methos tested the child, Duncan still doesn't. Even after Methos killed his brothers.
So many of them dead. There can be only one is a crock of shit. For a thousand years, four rode together; for three thousand, they lived in peace with each other. Had Kronos only adapted -
Sarafina wins the argument and turns back to her tablet. Duncan pouts at her before stomping back to Methos.
He is but a child, as all of them are. So few old ones remain because they were mostly like Kronos: unable or unwilling to adapt. Mortals grow cleverer every year and soon enough there will be no more hiding.
There were days when immortals walked amongst mortals and everyone knew what they were. God-kings and children of gods; wisemen and sages; pilgrims who were given the best place at the table.
Four men on horseback who terrorized a continent. So much history. Even more lost.
There were good days and there were bad days, and Methos does not know how these modern mortals will react when it all comes to light.
He feels so very old. Tired. He misses his brothers.
Inside, Kronos murmurs, you know how easy it would be. Silas begs for a horse to ride.
It is not Duncan's fault, not truly, but it would be so easy to blame him.
The Watchers think Adam Pierson is Duncan's student, and has been for nearly three decades. Perhaps it is not that he is tired, simply bored of this life.
There is much that is known, now. Very few places to hide.
But he doesn't need to hide for long, does he? Once, he ruled nations. And for all that the world has changed - people haven't.
"I'm gonna turn in," Adam Pierson tells his teacher and friend. He nods to Sarafina, shrugs on his coat, and steps into the night.
People don't change. They haven't in over five thousand years. They adapt, yes, but who they are at their core, in their very soul?
Kronos laughs as Methos' blood sings at the thought of the plan he quickly works through, walking in a city younger than Methos can truly fathom. Everything is so young, now.
I'll start with horses, Methos decides, for Silas.
Methos does not take with force, when he can avoid it. Taking with force is easy, and often leads to unrest, to rebellion. It is always best to work in the shadows, to be a friend of the people, and then, when you sit on the throne, they love you.
And if that doesn't work, as it doesn't always, you strike quickly.
Adam Pierson disappears. On the other side of the world, a warlord who adores horses learns that there is a young man who works magic with them. He says that his name is Silvano, when the warlord's men come for him, and he's only ever wanted to work with horses.
Technology will reveal immortals soon, and Silvano's 'uncle' offers him the best place at the table, and the horses dance as they have not danced in three thousand years.

Date: 2015-06-06 11:10 am (UTC)FILL: What If the Sky Falls? [Justice League Cartoon, Bruce Wayne(/Wally West), PG]
Date: 2015-06-06 02:22 pm (UTC)Of course he does. He can't say it out loud, can't mourn with the others, but he refuses to deny it. It's another raw wound, another reason to do better or else face losing yet more people that he...
Well.
He knows the man's secret identity, of course, found out a few months before Flash's death and never quite got around to using the information. He still refers to him as the Flash, even in his head. The man never gave him the permission to use his actual name, and it's the one sign of respect he can show.
He still wonders, on long nights with not quite enough crime to keep him busy and too much pain in his chest to keep him still... If the Flash would've one day given him permission. Would've pulled off his mask freely, smiled, laughed. Would've blushed as red as his suit, took his hand, arched up on tiptoes to kiss him. Would've, one day when they trusted each other enough-
Well.
It's a moot point, anyway. The Flash is never coming back, and all he's ever going to have are musings. The sharp ones, the ones that cut into his mind like shards of glass.
